ArchetypeDatsun Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 That's what's confusing but I think it turned it into the 910 after the last 2 years but don't quote me on that it's just what I read a lot from different sources. I believe it would be easier to just call it "810 Maxima" so it isn't confused with the early 810 from 77-80. Nissan confused a lot of people when they badged a lot of cars including my ZX as a Datsun Nissan lol. It's either a 1st gen 810 or a 2nd gen 810, kind of like when people say hey I got a 510 for sale but then you look at the pics and realize it's a 2nd gen 510 idk I'm just saying it can be confusing for some.

datsunfreak Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 but still argue its really a 910 because of a body code. Riiiiiiiiiight lol. It sure is handy when looking for parts though. :thumbup: Just like the 210. It's chassis code is B310, but Nissan decided to do exactly what you described and name it 210. Now everyone thinks of B210 when you say 210. I view this as an opportunity to fix a mistake Nissan made. Not perpetuate it. B) Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 No its not, every part I ever ordered for a customer 1st gen maxi was under "810 Maxima", even from the dealer. It was a crossover model its fairly obvious, yes the bod code was 910, EVERYTHING else was 810, where I come from 6 of one beats 1 of another lol.You literally have to say you know more then nissan, the gov, every parts dealer etc... to call it a 910. You guys are welcome to do that too all I said was I didnt agree. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 You literally have to say you know more then nissan, the gov, every parts dealer etc... to call it a 910. Or just say you prefer to call cars by their chassis code. :rofl: And I can get all the parts I'd ever need by just calling it a Maxima. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment

Well, that's the way most dealerships are. ^_^ Send them an email about it. They'll answer you back pretty quick. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Courtesy is a cut above the rest def just contact them with any questions. Quote Link to comment
bloodontheapex Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 From courtesy parts: One item is a "DR GR/" and another is "FR/RR." What do y'all think a DR GR/ and a FR/RR is? haha. I sent them an email about the carpet. Looks like they have NOS radios and cassette players, but sooo expensive. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 What do y'all think a DR GR is? haha. I sent them an email about the carpet. If it's in reference to carpet, I'd say dark gray maybe? Or dark green... :lol: Quote Link to comment

nismosilvia Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hey blood I bet your cars leaking from the roof and doors. The chrome trim on the roofline and the door/trunk seals. You can try using ospro but it will eat paint. A Guy used mustang seals on his 510 doors so I'm sure it will work for the 810 Quote Link to comment

gomeZZZ Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hi guys! I'm a newbie - as a Datsun owner and as a forum member also. I bought my car ('77 180B) like 2 weeks ago, and I was kinda sure, that it's a 610. Just realised, that this is a 810, when I posted to the 610 topic, and then I was redirected here. ^_^ Here is a photo about my precious. :) I want to renew the interior a bit - I hope this forum will be useful. (helping members/owners, maybe getting replacement parts, etc.) btw. Anybody else from Europe? :) Quote Link to comment
ArchetypeDatsun Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Sweet 180b/810 we don't see many here but welcome to the 810 club I myself have yet to purchase one but hopefully real soon I will have one. Do you guys out in Europe come opon 180b/810 all the time or are they pretty rare? Reason I ask is I always wanted to find someone out there selling the front & rear bumpers as they are smaller and closer to the body of the 810's here is the states. Quote Link to comment

I haven't see any other instance of late '70s Datsuns in Budapest... But now that I own one, I will walk with eyes wide open! B) Quote Link to comment
